The verses around it, from Isaiah 8.
8 It will pour into Judah, swirling and sweeping over it, reaching up to the neck; its spreading streams will cover your entire land, O Immanuel!
9 Huddle together, O peoples, and be shattered; pay attention, all you distant lands; prepare for battle, and be shattered; prepare for battle, and be shattered!
10 Devise a plan, but it will be thwarted; state a proposal, but it will not happen. For God is with us.”

12 “Do not call conspiracy everything these people regard as conspiracy. Do not fear what they fear; do not live in dread.
13 The LORD of Hosts is the One you shall regard as holy. Only He should be feared; only He should be dreaded.
14 And He will be a sanctuary—but to both houses of Israel a stone of stumbling and a rock of offense, to the dwellers of Jerusalem a trap and a snare.
15 Many will stumble over these; they will fall and be broken; they will be ensnared and captured.”
16 Bind up the testimony and seal the law among my disciples.
